Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees. 

Pan-seared chicken

  1. Split the chicken breasts in half horizontally. Season with salt and pepper add olive oil to a skillet and saute chicken over medium heat. The chicken should be almost cooked through; this should take about 4 to 6 minutes on each side.  Set the chicken aside.  It's best to match up the chicken pieces for assembly.  

Cheese filling

  1. Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Stir well.   
  2. Match the chicken pieces and place a couple of tablespoons between the two pieces of cooked chicken.   Keep the chicken warm by placing it into the oven.  You may want to brush a little olive oil on the top piece of chicken so it does not dry out. 
  3. Place the chicken onto a pan and place it into the oven.  

Chicken Marsala Sauce

  1. Use the same pan the chicken was cooked in.  Do not wipe out the pan. 
  2. Add flour and butter to a skillet, cook for about 1 minute on medium heat. Add Lambrusco brand dry marsala wine, stir until the sauce thickens. Add in heavy cream, and allow the sauce to reduce — season with salt and pepper. 

Mushrooms

  1. In a skillet add butter, when the butter melts, add the mushrooms. Season mushrooms with a small pinch of salt, and a small pinch of black pepper as they cook.  Saute mushroom until they begin to brown, add them to the wine sauce. 

Chicken Assembly

  1. Place a stuffed chicken breast onto a plate, and place marsala sauce over the chicken.  Serve immediately. 

Notes

  • This recipe does take a little footwork in its preparation.
  • Try to cook the mushrooms at the same time as the chicken in a separate pan. Or you can cook them before you cook the chicken. Lambrusco brand of Marsala wine is a brand recommendation to be close to the Olive Garden's Marsala wine. Other brands of dry Marsala wine will work.
